Rise Against guitarist leaves 2007-02-23 by Damrod EMERITUS | 12 Comments | According to the Rise Against-website, guitarist Chris Chasse has decided to leave the band. From what can be read from the announcement, this is because of the huge upcoming tour schedule that lies in front of the band:
'When you roll out to see us on the My Chem tour this month, you'll notice a fresh face amidst our ugly mugs. Sadly, Chris our guitar player has stepped aside in the face of what we agree is an overwhelming tour schedule stacked on growing pressures and demands. Yes, the Rise Against curse continues...
"Rise Against was the best three years of my life. I've met so many amazing people and been all over the world with the best friends anyone could ask for. I'll never stop writing or playing music. Thank you to everyone over the past few years for all of the love and support. Hope to see you all again soon. xxx." - Chris Chasse
Stepping up to the plate is longtime friend Zach Blair from the mighty Only Crime. We coudn't be more excited about this new addition to the family and look forward to a full year of touring worldwide with Zach at our side. Only Crime has issued warrants for our arrest in the theft of their beloved axe-man, but rest assured they plan to soldier on with a replacement in support of their genius new record "Virulence." What you haven't heard it yet?! Shame...'

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
well as long as it wasnt tim or joe
| | |
That's gay. I hope this new guy fits in well.
| | |
Damn that sucks. As long as they don't break up completely i guess.
| | |
Yeah, listen to the Rise Against dude and get Only Crime's Virulence. It's better than anything Rise Against has done, at least.

BRING BACK TODD!!!!! OR DAN!!!!!
actually, if zach stays around for an album, then it'd be nice to see in which direction he takes them, what with having a more hardcore background and all...
| | |
DAMMIT! I liked Chris so much this makes me so sad.
| | |
*mourns*
| | |
Zach is really good actually. He plays alot of the leads in only crime, so maybe we'll see a more dynamic Rise Against?
This is really getting quite ridiculous though.
| | |
balls...
| | |
Dan Precision COMEBACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
| | |
Lamentable was the timewhen Todd did set forth and travel astray.
PRAY NOT, BUT THE SAME FATE HATH BEFALLEN CHRIS!
O, God, what hath thou brought upon such a bated soul. Such beguilment this hath received. O, pray for the renewed guitarist of a band so noble in cause, o pray he not fail!
